Chapter 193: The head was kicked by the donkey

The next day, Li Changyu asked Zhang Huai to go with him to ask someone to plant willows.

As soon as he saw Zhang Huai, he remembered what happened last night, and couldn't help but look him up and down, his face was strange, and he said in his heart, I helped you block a big trouble. However, I'm afraid that if you block the first day of junior high school, you can't block the fifteenth, and you will continue to have trouble in the future, unless you announce to the people in the village that you want to marry Chrysanthemum.

Zhang Huai was inexplicably looked at him, looked down at his body, although the clothes were old, they were clean and neat, and there was nothing inappropriate, so he asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" What are you looking at me like this? ”

Li Changyu smiled: "It's nothing, it's just that I think you are particularly jade trees in the wind and radiant today." ”

Zhang Huai glanced at him and said, "If you don't say it, forget it, I can see that my heart is furious." You should keep those words and use them on Li Jiaerlang! ”

When Li Changyu heard this, he couldn't help but laugh when he thought of Li Changyun

The two went to Li Changxing's house first, and after calling him, they called Li Changyun, Li Changming, Sun Tiezhu, Zhao Dazui, Liu Ershun, Liu Sanshun, Huang Xiaodun, etc., and a large group of male babies were busy by the river.

This is not a serious matter, everyone has been busy for most of the day, and they have been laughing and playing for a long time, and they finish work early in the afternoon, and they are laughing all the way back to the village.

Zhang Huai went home and asked his mother to help boil a pot of water, saying that he wanted to take a bath, and he took advantage of the time to chop some carrots, mixed some acorns, mixed a large bucket of pig food, and brought it over to feed the pigs.

He took off his outer clothes, put on a tattered gown, put on a straw hat, and quickly cleaned the pigpen, and carried two buckets of water to rinse it before resting.

He and Aoki came up with a thick plank on the floor of the pens. It's easy to rinse, otherwise, a few pigs don't know what to do with the pig pen, is it possible to scrape a layer of ground every time they clean up?

When He saw his son enter the house, he was busy, cleaning the pig pen, feeding the chickens, carrying firewood and sweeping the yard, he was very distressed, boiled the water, and called him to take a bath. I started cooking dinner.

She sat behind the stove and lit the fire, thinking that if Grandma Huang asked her in the morning, she had to tell Huaizi and let him have a number in his heart.

Zhang Huai came out of the shower, relaxed and sat at the door with a book in his hand.

Ho simmered the rice. So he packed up his son's clothes, threw them into the wooden basin, moved a small stool and sat opposite his son, and tried to talk to him while scrubbing them.

She looked at her son's short jacket, which was well-mended but a little faded, and said to him, "In a few days, I will go to the market and tear some cloth and help you make two clothes." You don't have a decent garment, it's all mended and mended. Alas! Aoki is much better than what you wear now. ”

Zhang Huaizheng could see it, and was stunned when he heard his mother's words. frowned and said: "Aoki is Aoki, his family is better off than us now, why should you compare with him?" That rich man still wears silk and satin, can we afford it? This garment is not the same as if it is mended, and it takes a lot of trouble to do it again. ”

He Shi said helplessly: "'People rely on clothes, and Buddha wants gold clothes', we are no better than those rich people, but we just make two better coarse cloth clothes to wear." Dressed neatly, people also look energetic, even if the chrysanthemum is seen, it is ......"

Zhang Huai saw that his mother was talking headless and brainless today, and now he was pulling chrysanthemums again, so he hurriedly interrupted her and said, "Mother, what are you talking about?" If Chrysanthemum doesn't like me, it's useless for me to wear any good clothes; If she likes me, no matter how poor I am, she won't dislike it. Ultimately. Aren't we working hard for our own sake? At most, it's just to let her understand that I'm a person who is willing to work hard and can endure hardships. ”

Seeing that his son didn't like to hear this, He Shi stopped talking, but sighed and said to him, "Huaizi." Mother is in a hurry, if only Chrysanthemum understood your mind, no matter how long it will take, we can afford to wait. But you're in trouble right now, and several people have come to probe and told me to push it, and those reasons can't be explained. ”

When Zhang Huai heard this, his expression became serious, he closed the book in his hand and asked, "Didn't you say that you have been talking about kissing for two years?" ”

He glanced at him and said, "Coaxing? People ask to get married first, and then get married in two years? You're just pushing too much, and pushing too much makes people gossip, and we don't have the conditions to put our posture high. If you say that you are right for your daughter-in-law, others will have nothing to say. ”

She saw that her son was silent in thought, and then said: "Today, Grandma Huang came to explore the wind and asked me what I mean, if I want to help Huaizi choose a daughter-in-law." said that someone entrusted her, if I had that thought, I would say it and look at it, if I didn't have that thought, she wouldn't have to say it. I had to say I didn't have that mind. He also said that my Yang Zi studied very hard, and now his father and brother are holding back their energy, and they have to save some family business first, so that he can take the exam before he comes out, and the others are all back. ”

Zhang Huai smiled when he heard this, handed his mother an appreciative look and said, "Isn't my mother saying it quite well." This is a good reason, better than the previous one. ”

He Shi glanced at him and said, "It's not a thing to be like this. I don't think there have been more people coming to the matchmaker recently, even if I don't talk about the matchmaker, I'm also here to find out, and I can't say anything. Why don't I mention this to your Aunt Zheng? ”

Zhang Huai remembered Chrysanthemum's indifferent smile, shook his head and said, "It's still true, even if Aunt Zheng agrees, it won't be possible - she will still listen to Chrysanthemum's own meaning." Mother, don't worry, I know it in my heart. ”

"Work hard slowly, you will always do it", this is what Chrysanthemum said to him. If you think about these things all day long, but you can't do anything, then you will still be looked down upon in the end.

He saw that his mother was a little annoyed, and said with a smile: "If someone asks again, you will say that I don't know what's going on, maybe my head was kicked by a donkey, I just don't want to say kiss, it's over." ”

He got up and put his clothes in the basket, splashed dirty water, and said with a smile: "Do you talk like this, so badly abuse yourself?" ”

Zhang Huai put down the book, went to the well to help her fetch water, and said to her: "There are suddenly more people who say that they are married, do you know what's going on?" I think your son is so popular. ”

He scolded with a smile: "My son is not popular, it is not bad, it will definitely not be kicked in the head by a donkey." What's going on, you say? ”

Zhang Huai told his mother what he heard Xiao Shi say at Chrysanthemum's house on the thirtieth night, and he laughed when he heard He's "hehe", but he didn't expect that because of this, even his youngest son was targeted.

She's a good person. didn't laugh at Xiaoyan's mother, and said to Zhang Huai while doing laundry: "Isn't this a mess?" The boys in the village are also good, but this marriage is to pay attention to fate, if you don't care about it, in order to leave the girl in the village, match indiscriminately, sooner or later something will happen. ”

Zhang Huai lifted a pass of water, poured it into the basin, and said in his mouth: "That's not what I said." You now know that it wasn't your son who was popular. I think Changxing, Sanshun, and Changyun will all encounter this. ”

"What's going on?" In the dim twilight, Zhang Yang ran into the courtyard with a few books.

Zhang Huai looked at his younger brother and frowned, "Yang Zi, come back early in the future." It's impossible to stare at a book for so long. You have to rest often, and when spring begins, you have to go out and shop more. ”

He Shi heard this and hurriedly said, "I said the same thing. You are still young, study for a few more years, didn't your brother Changfeng only be admitted to Xiucai last year? ”

Zhang Huai said: "He was admitted to Xiucai at this age, which can be regarded as a young man's ambition." There are also people who have been taking the exam for decades, but they haven't passed the exam even after a beard. ”

Hearing this, He's face changed, and he looked at his youngest son and stopped talking.

Zhang Yang saw his mother's worried look. smiled: "Don't worry, mother, if your son doesn't get admitted to Xiucai before the age of twenty, he will go home to farm, and he will definitely not get a beard and not let go, isn't it a head kick for a donkey?" ”

He heard the two brothers say that "the head was kicked by the donkey", which was a little funny, scolded him for "", and cleaned his clothes three and two. Hung under the eaves and beckoned his son into the house to eat.

Because Zhang Dazhuan went out, the mother and son were at home.

While eating, He looked at his two sons, very satisfied. Looking at Zhang Huai, he was still a little worried about him, and thought to himself. I have to find a chance to tell Sister-in-law Zheng what I mean, I don't expect her to make Chrysanthemum agree to this family affair, at least let her and Brother Zheng know in their hearts, and let Chrysanthemum promise people randomly.

Chrysanthemum didn't go to the river today--those boys, aren't they uncomfortable coming over? She called Liu Xiaomei. Do needlework with her.

Liu Xiaomei said to Chrysanthemum: "Meizi is scheduled to become a family on February 2. ”

Chrysanthemum asked in surprise: "Didn't you say that you would not get married until the house was built?" His house is still in the shadows. ”

Liu Xiaomei flipped over the clothes in her hand, straightened out the sewn patches, and after biting off the thread, she leaned in front of the chrysanthemum and whispered: "It's the dog who has made up her mind and is going to lend money to her son-in-law, and she wants to buy a piece of land on the side of the mountain to build a tile house, so this marriage will be done in the old house." ”

Chrysanthemum was stunned and asked: "The problem is that his house has only three rooms, if Meizi enters the door, where does his younger brother Li Changliang live?" Well, the sleeping hall is also made. When my family didn't build a house, my brother slept in a hall. ”

Liu Xiaomei glanced at her and said, "Can your family's situation compare with his?" You are brothers and sisters, so naturally you have to be casual; If his family is sleeping in the hall, it will be inconvenient for plums to go in and out. I heard that he was going to pick up a room behind his father's room for Brother Changliang to live in, anyway, the young couple couldn't live in the old house for a long time, and they built an earthen house very quickly. ”

Chrysanthemum nodded and said: "The dog is right, bear with it, build Meizi's house better, and save her from worrying about it in the future." ”

Liu Xiaomei said enviously: "Meizi is really blessed to have such a mother." ”

Chrysanthemum smiled: "Your mother also treats you well, but your brother has too many brothers to take care of." Meizi's family has a younger brother, who is still young, so her mother can help her. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Xiaomei smiled and said: "Isn't it, my mother often says that if you raise more children, you have to be tired and shed a layer of skin when you are a father, and people also say that you have a group of children, and you are blessed." My brothers often joked, and the third brother said that it would be good if he didn't give birth to Sishun, and my fourth brother would quarrel with him; My second brother said, don't make any noise, if you don't give birth to the two of you, only give birth to a little sister, then our family will have to save a lot of miles. ”

Chrysanthemum listened to Guan Er and chuckled: "Fortunately, your brother didn't say that he wouldn't give birth to you." ”

Liu Xiaomei pursed her lips and said, "They dare to say? But my father said that if he doesn't give birth, he will give birth to me - my family will count me for worrying and being obedient. ”

Chrysanthemum nodded, and said Are you an old girl, naturally you want to be favored. ()
